I'm sitting on the fence with this.  Running the tests from the Makefile
it would probably be more difficult to ensure that one could keep the
files when the tests were trying to clean up after themselves (as some
option would need to be injected into the test invocation and/or a
different test command would need to be called).

The temporary files could be in a sub-directory... or each test (group)
could have their own sub-directory.  Whatever the organisation, there
should be a single directory which, if recursively removed, gets rid of
all files created by the test run.

Achim.
